Keven Hernandez Dazzles in Burbank Victory

If history really does repeat itself, Hernandez might just drop another big game when he faces off against Brackenridge on Friday. Hernandez rushed for 116 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 145 yards and two touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes the last time he and the Eagles duked it out back in September of 2023.
